Dogara defend NASS say they never removed the Lagos-Calabar rail project from the 2016 budget, says reports are absolute rubbish

In a series of tweets, speaker of the House of
Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has discredited reports that the
National Assembly has removed the Lagos-Calabar rail project from the 2016
budget. There were media reports this weekend that a source within the
presidency said that the lawmakers removed the rail project.

This has
generated a lot of argument with many people accusing the National
Assembly members of working against the progress of the budget.
Responding to the arguments via his twitter handle, Dogara said there
was never an inclusion for the Lagos-Calabar rail project in the budget.
